Abstract *

<p>This study will explore how members of an illicit network navigate investigative interviews probing their crimes. We will examine how perceived disclosure outcomes, namely, the projected costs and benefits, affect what members choose to reveal. We aim to recruit a minimum of N = 20 groups, six participants per group. Each group will assume the role of an illicit network. The network is to plan for possible interviews with investigators probing into the legitimacy of a business the network owns. All participants will undergo an interview after the group planning stage. We will examine two research questions. (1) What do network members choose to reveal, and why do they make the choices they do? (2) To what extent do individual decision-making and network membership independently and jointly predict the kinds of information people choose to disclose about their network? The results will contribute to understanding how illicit networks are likely to manage information disclosure in investigative interviews. </p>
